Camera Porn - Toyo Field 45CF

I promise that this is the last camera porn...for a while, anyway! Here is a shot of the business end of my Toyo Field 45CF. A 4x5 large format field camera with a high tech carbon fiber body and weighs in at a little more than three pounds (1.5kg). It can fold up and fit quite nicely into my backpack with lens still mounted and has a reversible Graflok back for portrait orientation. Many consider it an entry level large format camera, as it does not have any rear movements. However, I have yet to need those movements to make the amazing images that I get with it. Considering that it is about $1,400USD less than the metal body 45AII, it is a very appealing camera for novice or pro alike.

 

It looks fabulous on black, so go ahead and click in it!
